Bimanual technique of subfoveal neovascular membrane removal in presumed ocular histoplasmosis

We describe a bimanual technique of subfoveal neovascular membrane removal in a patient with presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome. His postoperative vision has improved from 20/400 to 20/100 at 3 months follow-up. No recurrence of the membrane was noted.
